..although he can win against a 2nd tier colony like Dover and Balmoral/Maywood have, when the big boys come to town, it's crystal clear that Morgan is not in the same ballpark as them. Pierce, Miller and Sears are just heads and shoulders above him.

Not taking away from his success so far at Dover, just giving a reality check to those who think he can hang with the big boys. He can't.

On days when the "bog boys" are there, I'll bet he isn't getting drives on horses that are nearly as good as his drives on other days.

So Morgan cant hang with the three best drivers on the continent....thats really saying a lot. baron - you cant name 7 others who are better than Morgan, can you? that means he's top 10...and that means he's great. For those who disagree, lets see your list of 7 guys better than Morgan ( Not including sears Pierce and D miller )......no one can come up with a serious list...Joe B

I would put Morgan at #6 behind the 3 mentioned already and Cat Manzi/Dave Magee.

However, out of the top 6 drivers in the country, if I had a $4,000 claimer that Iwanted to win on (and all drivers happened to be available to put down on the horse)Morgan would be my man--especially if the horse would be at a bit of a price.

If I had a horse in a $250,000 race and all 7 drivers were available to put down on myhorse, Morgan would be my LAST choice to put down on the horse

Wasn't that long ago Miller left his base in Ohio and moved to the Meadowlands. The very same people were saying the very same thing about him as y'all are spewing about Morgan. "The drivers colony at the Big M will eat him up and spit him all the way back to Scioto Downs".Suddenly he is in a select class of driver ?

Baron, why do you hate Morgan so much. I guarantee you Morgan would hold his own at the Meadowlands, win 4-5 a night? No. Win as much as Brennan, Ledford, Gingras, Miller ect.? Definately. I'm happy you are going to say Morgan can't hang with the big boys after one Monday night at Dover in which by no means did Morgan "Not hang with the big boys". There is a reason he is 2nd in wins right now in the country. Quit trying to overlook it. Give the guy some credit. Your anti-Morgan threads are getting old. Here are the stats from Monday between 3 of the big names and Morgan who had relatively the same amount of drives.Driver 1st 2nd 3rd

Morgan 1 3 4

Pierce 1 2 3

Miller 1 4 0

Sears 4 1 1

Besides Sears looks pretty even to me with Morgan actually having a slight edge over the other two. Thanks Baron have a nice day!

morgan is as good as anyone in the us and canada.... im not saying hes better but just as good. i remember back in 85 or 86 when he first came to balmoral 5/8 track from fairmount. i knew right then he was something special...

Which part? There are three separate statements and all are TRUE! Only the ghost ownership needs clarification. Morgan was involved behind the scenes as owner in races where there was more than one horse in the race that he had some connection with. Hence the control factor but more of a gambling factor. His record at non-bush league tracks speaks for itself. He gets his ass handed to him by the better drivers. That's why Pompano and Dover were his first choices. If money was the true driving force he would have selected the Meadowlands to prove he belongs.

You have confused purse structure with competition. Dover's regular driver colony is BUSH League! Slots have increased their purses from 1500 to 15000. The reason they have so many Delaware owned or bred races is to keep competition OUT! How many races has Morgan won when competing against Sears, Miller, Pierce and other top drivers? Don't answer, he only has to race against them on Mondays and he would head to Pompano if one of them relocated to Delaware. My answer was only stupid to the clueless.
